ACCOUSTICAL ANALYSIS
1.Shape and massing
The shape is curvilinear with
one side longer and other
side shorter this is a poor
acoustical design as the
sound is concentrated
towards middle as one point
source
2. Levelling of seats
The levelling of seat is the most
efficient as it establishes the defined
relationship between a speaker and
audience it allowes the farthermost
person to hear clearly due to
effectiveness of sound waves reaching
the person clearly without any
obstacle in front
ACCOUSTICAL ANALYSIS
3. Seating arrangement
The arrangement of seating in
140 degree allows high
frequency sounds to be
discerned.
2. Levelling of seats
The staggered ceiling here helps in aid
of reflecting the sound back to seating
area and increase in the volume of
sound as the ceiling height is not too
much it lessens the echo formation and
the panels serve full purpose as to
distribute sound evenly throughout the
auditorium.
